Astral pool chlorinator

Introduction

Your AstralPool Chlorinator works by transforming part of the salt (sodium chloride) in your pool into chlorine, which begins to kill algae and germs while also sanitising it. Your Chlorinator control offers a number of features that make operating your chlorinator and filtration system a breeze.

Astral Pool chlorinator is also known as salt water chlorinator. The chlorination of swimming pools and hot tubs using dissolved salt (1000–36,000 ppm or 1–36 g/L) is known as salt water chlorination. The chlorine generator (also known as a salt cell, salt generator, salt chlorinator, or SWG) produces chlorine gas or its dissolved forms, hypochlorous acid and sodium hypochlorite, which are already frequently used as pool sanitizers, using electrolysis in the presence of dissolved salt. As a byproduct, hydrogen is also created.

Salt water chlorinator pools use chlorine to sanitise the water and kill bacteria. The major difference between a chlorine and a saltwater swimming pool is that chlorine is supplied on a regular basis in a chlorine pool, but in a saltwater pool, chlorine is created automatically by the chlorine generator. A saltwater pool (or hot tub/spa) will also include dissolved salt, which is the same salt you use in the kitchen. A salt water chlorinator is multifunctional and may be used in a range of settings, including household and commercial swimming pools, jacuzzis, and spas.

HOW DO astral pool CHLORINATORS WORK?

Swimming pool chlorine generators (also known as saltwater pool chlorinators) from AstralPool produce their own chlorine, eliminating the need to manually add chlorine to your pool.

To sanitise your swimming pool, saltwater chlorinators employ an electrolytic cell. The cell turns the chloride in the salt water into chlorine by adding a little amount of salt (sodium chloride) to the pool water. This is a very effective and cost-effective way to sanitise your pool.

Traditional chlorinated pools can produce red eyes, skin irritations, and harsh chemical odours, which saltwater pools can manage to remove. And the salt content of the water is so minimal that it is nearly invisible. It's really less than a teardrop, making it soft on the skin and lovely to swim in. Alternatively, several mineral salt mixes are available on the market that may be used with an Astral pool chlorinator generator to give a touch of luxury to your pool water.

The chlorine level in the pool may be controlled using the control board. Certain types, like as the Viron eQuilibrium, also allow you to link your salt chlorinator to a pool automation system and control it remotely using an iPad, iPhone, or Android smartphone.

• Water from the pool containing salt (sodium chloride) enters the cell
• Electric charge is applied to electrolytic plates and turns chloride ions into gas
• Chlorine gas dissolves into the water
• Water with pure chlorine is returned into your pool

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING (AUTOMATIC) SALTWATER CHLORINATORS?

• Fewer chemicals

There is less need for extra sanitising chemicals when chlorine is present in the pool. Other chemicals, such as oxidizers, are reduced as well, saving you money and time. This implies that pool maintenance is less harmful to the environment. Moreover, there is no significant chlorine odour in the surrounding of the pool.

• Minimal maintenance

A chlorinator is low-maintenance and may be programmed to operate your filtration pump and run the system on its own. The amount of chlorine produced may be adjusted to fit your pool's size and bather demand. However, you should still test your water on a regular basis to verify that your chemical levels are in check.

• Cost-effective

Astral Pool chlorinator may be more expensive up front, but they save significantly more money and effort in the long run due to the massive reduction in chemicals and maintenance.

Note: that the salt cell has a limited lifespan (approximately 3-5 years depending on use), therefore it will need to be replaced, just like tyre replacements or other routine automobile maintenance.

• Smart features

The current generation of chlorinators has Bluetooth or Wifi connectivity, allowing you to monitor and manage your chlorine production remotely. They also include smart sensors that can automatically reduce your chlorine output in cold water, reducing salt cell wear and tear.
